My TT GO 700 is stuck on the splash screen.
I know exactly how the trouble started - I accidently pressed a wrong digit in the start-up pass code, so I switched off and restarted, but...
Now, when I switch on, the splash screen shows for about 10 minutes, then the pass-code screen shows but will not input the numbers, then it either restarts itself or shuts itself down. I have tried resetting at least half a dozen times, but that does not help. Neither TT Home nor Windows Explorer recognise that the TT is connected.
Somehow, the hard drive must have become corrupted. I've got loads of backups of the TT's hard drive on my computer, but if I can not get the computer to recognise that the TT is connected, how can I do a restore?
the usb cable is good, as are the connections, I am using windows xp pro, the TT was working perfectly earlier in the day, when I reset I do get the hands logo then the splash screen, when I connect the usb cable I get the usual red cross for a few moments to say do not disconnect but computer does not see TT.
Does Edgar still repair TTs? If so can someone give me the web address? I'm going to Canada soon - arrrragh.

hi,
If you are familiar with torx screwdriver , and have cf card reader in your PC you can:
- open your go,
- get out seagate cf hard drive,
- connect to pc and check if isn't fault (mine is)
repair solution:
- buy in shop cf card (2GB in my case)
- format it,
- copy previous backup to cf card,
- plug in cf, instead of hard drive,
- enjoy
in my case repair solution isn't ideal becouse I have problems with connecting throught usb but go working properly , and in my opinion is little bit faster than before ...

.... just don't ask us to repair it after you are done with it....;-)

i've just done with it , go700 works with normal cf-card properly, only issue is that with connection via usb I can't browse files stored on cf, only one method for installation anything at the moment is direct access to cf-card in pc card reader. If I have some free time maybe I prepare a little photo story .
Now I'm working on dead tt one, if anyone know tt one JP2 connector description? I'm looking for JTAG pinout and some specs for ONE v1.

One of the problems with your solution is that if TT removes the CF support from the kernel in the next software version, you'll end with a dead 700.
true ... almost true,
- if original hard drive is connected via CF, why do they want to remove a CF driver?
- update is possible only if I remove cf card to my pc reader so I will not happen accidentaly,
- I don't know if soft can distinguish what exactly is connected to cf interface, real hard drive or flash card,
